Cd's won't load after upgrade to tiger

I have been unable to load any cd's at all since upgrade to Tiger 10.4.6 from panther, New cd's and old cd's just spin and spin then eject without any error messages or anything.
Even the iwork cd included in tiger package would not load.
The drive reads the Tiger install dvd fine. It appears to not have problems with dvd's???
According to info I do not need firmware update:
PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-104:

Please help - Thank you

Hi
Have you tried a simple restart?
Also after any OS update, run Repiar Permissions from Disc Utility on your Boot Volume.
Try from a different User account (create one in SysPref/Accounts, if you only have one account)
Relaunch the Finder
Zap the PRAM
Try a DVD lens cleaning Disc (has two sets of bristles, one for CD, one for DVD), run it multiple times.
Your drive's CD lens may have died; if none of above makes any difference, and CD's of any kind continue to be ejected, I would say it's time to look at a new drive.
The good news where that is concerned is that replacement "OEM PC" bare drives (DVR-111D or ND-3550A) are only $40 or less online.

Project won't load after upgrade to 10.1.3

Howdy,
I'm working on a series of videos, each in a separate project, but all in the same library.
I did the bulk of the editing in 10.1, but recently upgraded to 10.1.3. FCPX did it's usual "update projects and events" routine when I opened the library in 10.1.3 for the first time. All my projects appear to be fine, except one...
This project is about 30 minutes long, with a handful of different clips – nothing huge... but it won't load. I get the spinning beach ball for a few minutes, then a system alert saying I've run out of application memory. I check Activity Monitor, and sure enough, FCPX is using over 12GB of RAM! It seems FCPX gets stuck in some sort of loop while trying to load this project, and I'm not sure what to do about it... Any help would be appreciated.
System info:
iMac
OSX 10.9.5
3.5GHz Core i7
16GB RAM

OK, I think I resolved my issue. I hadn't noticed that there was one missing media file in the project that wouldn't open. I didn't notice because normally, FCPX would open the project and swap a "missing media" icon for the absent file in the timeline, but in this case it simply refused to open the project. I re-imported the missing file, and now there are two of them in my media browser. If I delete any one of them, they both disappear... Odd.
In any case, my project opens now and that's good. What I don't understand is what happened to that missing file in the first place. I didn't delete it or move it. It seems to have been kicked out of the FCPX database upon upgrade to version 10.1.3, which by itself is a little troubling... and I fear there may still be similar database issues that I haven't discovered yet lurking in other projects
Here's hoping all of FCPX's "growing pains" get resolved soon.
Thanks for your help, Russ.

Pogo Games won't load after upgrade to Lion

Upgraded to Lion recently. Everything seems to be working okay, except that I play a lot of games on Pogo.com, and now none of the games will load. I made sure everything (Java, etc) was up to date, but none of it fixed the problem. I tried the games on both Safari and Firefox, and got the same result. Any game I try to open just says "Now Loading (Name of Game)..." and that's all it does.
I went back to an older mac that is still running Snow Leopard, and the games loaded just fine. So I figured it was an issue with Lion.
BUT... on the Snow Leopard computer, I noticed I had an old version of Firefox installed, so I upgraded that to the newest version, and now Pogo games won't load on that either! So, the problem isn't actually Lion. It's the newest versions of the browsers.
I tried contacting EA (pogo) support, but their help page is completely useless. I thought I'd check and see if anyone here has any ideas.
thanks,
Dan

I'm using Fouiny packages for a year (now it's cvs-20060621-1), as he provides ~all of them & they worked without issue ever since. Latest version's getting a bit old
EDIT : known problem with new openssl !

Icall won't load after upgrade to ios 5.

I have an ipod touch 4g. I get a screen that says I don't have a microphone attached and the app won't load. Does anyone else have this problem and a fix please.

The iCall app hasn't been updated in almost a year and a half, so it's quite possible that it's not compatible with iOS 5. Support information on their web site is nonexistent - they just have dummy pages which they've not bothered to update - so that doesn't lead to much confidence - so you may need to email or call them:

Classic won't launch after upgrade to Tiger

I have a user who's machine was just upgraded to 10.4.5, and now Classic won't launch.
I copied the system files from the resource folder in case they were corrupt, but it didn't help.
I tried to launch classic with extensions off, no go.
Rebuilt the desktop, no help.
when you try to launch Classic, it opens the start window and just hangs. Left it for half an hour, and it never launched.
I looked for the DivX file in /Library/application support, nothing there.
classic worked fine under 10.3.9.
Any thoughts on what to do next? Is it safe to reinstall OS 9.2 overtop or is a complete wipe and load necessary (hope not, as user has beaucoup third party apps).
Help!
Thanks,
Lisa

ITunes store won't load after upgrading to iTunes 9

Ever since I upgraded my iTunes to the new iTunes 9, I can't get iTunes store to load. I've gone through the troubleshooting, and even ran a repair iTunes and then uninstalled and re-installed the iTunes. Nothing has worked. It only loads part way with just blue boxes with ? marks in them and names of songs/artists. Plain white background and none of the links that do show go anywhere. I get this message when I try to click on a link: We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (306). There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later.

My daughter has iTunes 8.2.0.23 on her laptop and she could sign in with her own id and my id - so obviously there is a problem with version 9
I've uninstalled iTunes 9 and Apple Mobile Device Support thru Add/Remove programs
Installed iTunes 8.2.1.6
Removed library file made in version 9
Opened iTunes 8.2.1.6 and successfully signed into iTunes Store
Still cannot get onto iTunes via a Touch or 2 iPhones!!!
Added all my music back onto iTunes and it is working PERFECTLY
WON'T be upgrading to version 9
Hope this helps

Gmail won't load after upgrade to 3.6.9

Since upgrading to 3.6.9, gmail hangs while loading. The progress bar moves to 99% and then sits there. Gmail works in basic HTML mode, but not in normal JavaScript mode. Eventually, gmail time out and says "This is taking longer than usual". Looks like Ajax call never completes.

I just had this happen to me with FF 3.6.10 in my normal profile. If I ran in "Private Browsing" mode or another browser, it was working. The cause was my browser cache. As soon as I cleared my cache this worked again for me.

Photo Booth won't load after upgrade to Leopard

I just upgraded 4.5 year old iMac from Tiger (10.4x) to Leopard (10.5.8) and now Photo Booth (v.2.0.3) doesn't load. Any suggestions?

Hi BDAqua- Just tried your suggestion and got nothing while launching Photo Booth, but there were messages from earlier attempts. I'm going to attach a screen capture here of Console to see if you can understand them.
To give you a little more info, The Photo Booth screen appears on my daughter's iMac, but she just gets the spinning beach ball so we force quit.

Well, a lot depends on the amount of damage that you've done. Hopefully, the changes you made are slight and you can put everything back the way that it belongs. However, based on your post, I suspect that such is not the case. I suggest...

AE, PR, EN, and AME won't load after upgrade to Windows 8 Pro

I was running CS6 on Window 7 Home Premium. I upgraded my system to Windows 8 Pro and those 4 programs hang when trying to load. For AE it hangs at Initialize MediaCore, PR and AME hang at ExporterAVI.prm, and EN hangs once the application launches. I've uninstalled and reinstalled CS6, I'm uninstall Magic Bullet, and I've uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime. I've also given the program permission through the firewall as listed in the help guide from Adobe. Can anyone assist?

I'd 'refresh(charm->change pc settings->general)' or 'remove and reinstall' windows 8 if I were you, since upgrading to w8 from w7 made a lots of errors and BSOD(driver-related) for me. You have to install programs again even if you choose refresh. Sooner or later you'll face some errors... or not.

ITunes won't load after upgrading to Mavericks. Error 13010. I have tried deleting the Genius library file, still no luck.

I found some feeds where people had deleted the genius library .itdb and were able to fix the problem. It did not fix mine. Still unable to access iTunes!

The option key... I've been holding down the command key... No wonder that didn't work. I should really be writing this stuff down!.
Regardless, Downloading and reinstalling iTunes did the trick.
Thank you mende1 & saffron63 for the assist!

External hard drives won't mount after upgrading to Tiger 10.4.9. Help!

Hi, I've just got the latest iMac. Very excited! I did all the software updates, connected my Western Digital extended hard drive so that I could copy some files over onto my new Mac. It was fine at first. Then when I wanted to open up the external hard drive icon on my desktop again and double clicked on it, everything disappeared from the screen for a few seconds, then reappeared but my external hard drive simply opened the window to my personal hard drive on the Mac. The WD links to my computer via Firewire. I then connected my USB external hard drive stick and it was the same story.
I used Disk Utility to test everything and everything was fine.
I then reinstalled Mac OSX 10.4.8 and plugged in my external hard drives. Everything worked perfectly. After copying over documents and a couple of programs, and downloading a few more programs, I ran my software updates again, upgrading the operating system to Tiger 10.4.9. I attached my external hard drive and it was the same problem all over again.
I the read up the online discussions and also chatted to an Apple dealer, and their advice was to download the Intel Combo and reinstall the operating system. I have just done this and my external hard drives will still not mount properly. Their icons appear on screen but double click them and everything disappears.
Please help. This is really frustrating as I have a backlog of work to do and I seem to be wasting hours on this. Not only that, this is a brand new machine which I rightly expect to work straight away.
I look forward to your response. Thank you in advance.

Hi, try to put your HDD in other Mac and look if appear the same, also you can try to repair permission.
